What Is Card Modelling?

Card modelling is the making of scale models from sheets

We have a wide selection of warships. As well as ships
from WW2, including HMS Hood, Bismarck and USS Missouri, we have
some interesting kits of often neglected First World War types.

Merchant shipping is well represented in our catalogue

such as trawlers and container ships. And even a bit of fantasy!

scale of 1:100, the model (£16.95) is about 28 inches long
and shows the interior of the vessel, including Captain Nemo's
spacious quarters and the crew's cramped mess deck - the privileges
of rank!

kits, in various scales including 1:25, 1:72 and 1:87.
